RE: Blank screen once logged in

Nothing really,
	i just accepted all the defaults because I really don't mind where the
program installs and would just as soon edit my apache conf files than
struggle with neomail. Also I did not attempt this on a production box but
on a new install of slackware(8.1) set up following the "Maximum Linux
Security" protocol in that particular book (Sams). This was not a good
solution because I want to put Suse 8.1 into production. I still haven't
solved the problem in the correct way for the Suse box and I am sure that
Red Hat users have the same issue. Using CPAN to update your entire perl
installation would most likely be the best route, I'm giving that a try this
moring. In the meantime I will put my slack box into production.
